F-Gas
Full Certification
If you have not already applied for a Company Certificate you should do so immediately, without further delay. It is now a criminal offence to carry out activities that install, maintain or service stationary refrigeration, air-conditioning and/or heat pump equipment containing or designed to contain F-Gas refrigerants without a Company Certificate.
By 4 July 2011 any business that does not hold a Full F-Gas Certificate or currently holds an Interim Company Certificate must apply (or in the case of Interim certification upgrade) for a Stationary Equipment Qualification Company Certificate (Full Certificate) without further delay.
